This print showcases the brilliant mind and indomitable spirit of Stephen Hawking, the renowned British physicist. In this caricature, Hawking is depicted with a comical twist, capturing his larger-than-life persona and sense of humor. Despite being confined to a wheelchair due to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), he defied all odds and made groundbreaking contributions to cosmology, quantum gravity, and black holes. Hawking's intellectual prowess is exemplified by his best-selling book "A Brief History of Time" which propelled him into global recognition. His remarkable achievements have garnered numerous accolades throughout his career, including the prestigious Wolf Prize in Physics and being named a Companion of Honour in 1989.
